Jim Carroll was invited to keynote the Minnesota Hospital Association's Annual Meeting, held September 22–24, 2010, as one of the conference’s headline futurist voices. With the healthcare sector facing dramatic reform and the most significant period of change in a generation, Jim delivered his signature perspective on trends, innovation, and what lies ahead for hospital leaders across the state. He challenged attendees — from veteran CEOs to those new to hospital leadership — to think differently about the future of healthcare delivery and their role in shaping it. His session was part of a distinguished program that also addressed health care reform, leadership, and organizational strategy.
